What about: "Friendly Fire: A Linkin Park collection" ? Does it sound dumb?

Resolution has a more complete-sounding instrumental. 

Agree on this.

But isn't "Resolution" basically the same? It also lacks, a chorus and a bridge, as well as a pre-chorus.

Lol yeah what a mess ahaha. I don't know I hear Resolution as more "complete", dunno why.

If that's the case, does that also include "A6" (which I somehow forgot to mention)?

I would not include that because it's areally rough demo, totally lacks a chorus and a bridge, not ebven Mikre mumbling "nananana", but it's good to have it

I think they're talking about songs that have vocals completed for them. Resolution is missing Chester.

No, otherwise I wouldn't have included Massive. Just forgot Resolution

This last year really was massive for LP fans. We have been so blessed and nobody saw that only a year after lost we'd continue getting new LP music. I don't care what Era they throw at us, or in this case, all at once with the greatest hits, as long as we have more new LP music for years to come.  

Yeah we are talking about 6 unreleased songs (MTV, FM, Lost, Massive, Healing Foot and Friendly Fire) with vocals (possibly 7 with track n. 14 of this release)in a year. Amazing

That snippet sounds amazing I love it

It's not a hit. Isn't the point of a Greatest Hits to release hits? No Given Up and Shadow of the Day is surprising. Or anything from THP. Friendly Fire isn't a hit and isn't good enough to make OML, but they need a song to push the sales of this (hence why every band does this on Greatest Hits releases) so here we are.

We didn’t even hear the full song, it might even be a “Primo” like situation with a weird decision by the band. All I can say so far is that it sounds more like classic pop LP I would imagine than, say, a song like Heavy does (I really like that song, don’t get me wrong). We’ll see, I think that if it’s just a Chester track with that classic LP chorus I’ll enjoy it more than GG or SFN.

Personally, it sounds like they tried to make a heavier Catalyst with ALITS and it just doesn't work out like it should.

That song has amazing elements but it’s a Frankenstein song, too much stuff in there, lacks of cohesion

Friendly Fire preview of sound so similar I'll be gone.

This !!! It’s a OML song with LT vibes, I instantly thought about IMR/BID/IBG !

Plot twist - someone in marketing made a mistake, missed track 14 in the promos and are quietly watching us goin’ out of our fuckin’ minds

Oh man, the joy of hearing Chester. 

 

He will never truly be gone. 🥰

Brand new unreleased stuff almost 7 years after his passing is a BLESSING

I mean, you really love their last album? 😬

 

Obviously

I like it, Stuck and Seasons are bangers and 7:1 and avalanche are typical TSTM. It’s not their worst record IMO

Sorry but this sound like Thirty Second to Mars and this is not good thing. I mean, hearing Chester in something new is super cool, but I don't know. Waiting for the whole track, though.

I fucking love Thirty Seconds to Mars, just take it back 😂

I have a Love-Hate relationship with this album. 

Same here, the first half is ehhhhhhhh,GATS itself has amazing elements but as a whole something prevents me from fully loving it and considering it worth a GH spot 

The snippet sounds AMAZING

its fucking badass, very weird that its only available for the music video.

The MV extended intro is amaaaaazing 

Bleed out the echo or Lost it out

While SOTD peaked high, I don't feel like it had any cultural staying power the way many of their other songs have. Still feels weird to exclude it.

Probably the same issue" that a song like Heavy has: both were really succesful but not really representative of LP and theri staying power. A song like WFTE while less succesful chart wise is more representative of LP and their evolution

I think the hype is more about possible implications for the band's future than about the actual release. But it's not to be taken for granted that we'll actually get something out of it.

That being said, a new song (with Chester!) is still a new song and as other said above, I'll take any unpublished material from the band at this stage.

 

Honestly, the only way this could be an actually interesting release as a whole is if it's a live compilation from rare shows, or some "Best Performances" kind of thing, but I don't have much faith in that.

Lost is  among the songs so no live shows sadly

Imagine if there are zero "new" songs on this supposed GH album? I almost want to see it happen just to witness the fandom meltdown. 

I wouldn't rage, but it would be kinda pointless honestly, in 2024, a compilation of your classics songs, with every song on it being at least 7 y.o. with the exception of Lost, thrown on a CD
